Maybe less likely:
1. Or, more likely, 9th retains technical ruling (some reason why the specific magazine ban should be overturned, but not because of what the judge opined), and guts the opinion, so that SCOTUS can't reliably be petitioned - CA won't pursue it, and the petitioner will still have won.
2. CA comes back fixing the technicality and re-bans magazines.
Quite unlikely:
1. 9th Overturns
2. SCOTUS decides to hear the case. They traditionally don't touch 2A or controversial cases, and they don't want to touch it with a ten foot pole.
